Bruker X4 POSEIDON

The Future of Micro-CT and 3D X-Ray Microscopy

Modular Benchtop Solution

A new class of benchtop X-Ray Microscope

The X4 POSEIDON is a powerful micro-computed tomography machine that delivers the functionality of a floor-standing system in a compact benchtop design.

Micro-CT, also known as 3D X-ray microscopy (3D XRM), is an advanced imaging technique that provides an in-depth 3D view of samples for biomedical, life and materials science.

The X4 POSEIDON - At a Glance:

The X4 POSEIDON is a state-of-the-art, high-resolution 3D X-ray imaging system that builds upon the successes of our and well-established SKYSCAN 1272 and SKYSCAN 1275 systems.
The modular hardware and user-centered software of the X4 POSEIDON can be tailored to any analytical task. Thanks to its flagship technology, the system is effective at balancing field-of-view, magnification, and speed - allowing lightning fast scan times with expansive coverage and resolving features as small as 2 μm.
The X4 POSEIDON combines two detectors to create the first ever Multi-Vision benchtop 3D X-ray microscopy solution. Our advanced acquisition algorithms and unique GEM Plus feature ensure that every 3D image is optimally collected.
The X4 POSEIDON is an accessible, walk-up system that provides unparalleled ease-of-use with a straightforward workflow, an intuitive user interface, and multi-language support.
Requiring only standard power and a lab workbench, the X4 POSEIDON fits into any lab, bringing high-quality, non-destructive 3D imaging to everyone, everywhere!

GEM Plus: Ultimate Flexibility in Imaging

By combining Best-Scan-Geometry and Multi-Vision, the X4 POSEIDON delivers ultimate flexibility in a benchtop with Geometric Magnification Plus - GEM Plus^™.

A balance of field-of-view and resolution is achieved by moving the sample closer to the source or closer to the detector. With Best-Scan-Geometry, the detector can also be moved in a continuous way, allowing ideal cone beam utilization for a given sample size while achieving the same magnification ratio, resulting in a significant scan speed improvement.

GEM Plus builds on Multi-Vision and Best-Scan-Geometry to strike the perfect balance between pure resolution, scan speed and field-of-view.
